How does this rum taste?
Bold, fruity Long Pond funk
If you enjoy Hampden or other ester-forward Jamaicans and want something slightly more rounded yet still wild, this Cambridge 2010 hits that sweet spot between power and control.
Beginners, those sensitive to 57% ABV, or drinkers who dislike solventy nail-polish aromas, tannic dryness and assertive Jamaican funk.

Edit: Tasted again as part of the RumX Advent Calendar 2024. unfortunately missed the day, but I would have recognized it (I think). Or at least narrowed it down to the Cambridges 2005 & 2010. Already very typical and fine. And for me more pleasant to drink than (most) TECAs Absolutely great rum! So intense and full of flavor. But extremely drinkable at the same time. Strongly cooked cherry jam, fruit, vanilla pods in solvent, curry green, esters, wood ... a dream Update: After about 2 months, the bottle is almost empty and I've ordered a refill. It really has become my favorite "affordable" rum. Unfortunately, the strong vanilla fades very quickly when you first open it, but other things come out more beautifully. I'll give it another point.
Auto-translatedBlind tasting 2024-12-20 in the RumX calendar. Long Pond was not difficult to recognize. But I guessed TECA/TECC from the mark. I particularly like the liqueur character of this rum. The alcohol is also excellently integrated. Rating+0.1 Tasted together with the Velier Long Pond STCE 2005. What a wonderful nose! A great balance between tropical fruits, spices, wood - I could smell it for hours! I particularly like the fully ripe sweet pineapple. The palate is much spicier, but the fruit is also very well accentuated. A slight bitterness is added towards the finish. A fascinating rum, simply top class! The 2005 seems to me not quite as differentiated, rounder and does not have this bitter note. For me, this bottling is slightly ahead.
Auto-translatedSo many expectations on this release and I must say they were perfectly repaid! Classic profile of this distillery, dark intense and with a nice part of red fruits to garnish the tasting! Another fantastic long pond!
